Hockey is a popular sport that extends its influence beyond what we may initially think, and this is exemplified by the fan base of Patrick Kane, who has supporters even in South America.

One such fan is Carlos Vale, a 31-year-old from Brazil who is a diehard admirer of Kane.

This 31-year-old man in Brazil is a Patrick Kane fan for life. Literally.

"I felt a real need to do this for all the Hawks fans around the world because there're no borders for hockey fans."

Vale's dedication to the player is evident from the highly detailed tattoo of "showtime" on his arm, which took 16 hours to complete with the help of two Brazilian artists, Roberto Bryan, and Francisco Neto.

Vale has been a Blackhawks fan since the 2000s when the team drafted Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane.

Although hockey is not a popular sport in Brazil, Vale finds ways to keep up with his favorite team and considers Kane one of the NHL's best American players of all time.
